Jadranovo

Jadranovo is a coastal settlement on Croatia's northern Adriatic coast, situated approximately 8 km from Crikvenica and 26 km from Rijeka [1]. The town occupies a peninsula dividing the Bay of Lokvišće, with early settlement traces dating from the Iron Age to the Roman period (500 BC – 1 AD) [2]. The region's favourable climate and strategic coastal position attracted ancient settlers, making it a significant archaeological area in the Kvarner region [1][2].
